Prosperous in war
Derived from the Old English name Eadgyth, it combines the elements 'ead', meaning wealth or fortune, and 'gyth', meaning battle. It was a popular name among Anglo-Saxon royalty and remained in use after the Norman Conquest. Today, it is appreciated as a vintage gem with a strong, resilient meaning.
